that everyone here drinks here all the time lol i've had people tell me since i'm polish i must enjoy alcohol where i literally have never been drunk nor do i intend to be. sure there are people getting drunk like in every country but alcoholism is not a personality trait

Can definitely relate, I'm from Lithuania. I think that's a common stereotype for Eastern/central Europe as a whole

I am going to say that Americans are rude and arrogant. While there are some people who are like that, you can always find people who are kind and polite wherever you go, even in New York City.

Yeah, it’s like an auburn color more than firey red. When I was little I was also covered with freckles but not anymore since I don’t go outside
